ACADEMIC SENATE BUDGET: Chair Cogswell brought to the EC’s attention, the dire situation regarding the budget – and his desire for advice from the EC regarding how to deal with the budget cuts as it relates to the Senate. He informed the EC members that he has been trying to get all the divisions to work together on the budget cuts but so far nothing has been resolved. He pointed out that most of the Senate budget is comprised of staff salaries and research grant funds. Two years ago we got an augmentation that raised the research funds to $600,000. Even though the Senate has carryforward funds, the administration is only interested in permanent cuts. He also pointed out that the carryforward funds that the Senate currently has in its budget has already been committed for research grants. He indicated that his view is that research funds should at all costs not be cut. There was also a discussion on whether the budget cuts should include the Senate S&E which is relatively small too. The cuts are supposed to be in the range of 3% to 5%. Chair Cogswell has pressed on campus to have a 10 year review of spending and particularly how the campus weathered the last cuts. He noted that it was hard to find easy cuts right now. He felt that if he had a choice, he would rather cut the Senate S&E and take away the lunches/meals that we are currently providing the committees. The EC members agreed that to save funds, they would stop the lunches/meals immediately. Earle C. Anthony Endowment Fund in the amount of $10,000 was also discussed and Chair Cogswell informed the members that the purpose for the fund as stipulated in the Endowment letter was “to be distributed among all of the UC’s other campuses upon the basis of a moving three-year average of numbers of graduate students in the biological, physical, agricultural, and health sciences, engineering and mathematics t aid graduate students or other personnel of the university in those fields to obtain scientific education or to pursue scientific research.” Chair Cogswell asked the members whether they would like to spend the funds on a faculty or a graduate student. By a majority vote, the EC members approved a motion to award the funds to a graduate student. Chair Cogswell indicated that he will appoint a committee to discuss the mechanism for distribution of the funds, and that he will talk to the Deans to see if they could match the funds. CHANGE IN DEADLINES FOR GRADE SUBMISSIONS: The issue of the change in deadlines for grade submission was discussed especially because a number of Senate committees felt that it was a violation of academic freedom. VC Jim Sandoval and Interim Registrar Larae Lundgren were present to answer questions and to indicate why the changes occurred. It was noted that the deadline changed because of a winter holiday – and the EC members were reassured that this would not happen next winter. Spring has no holidays so the deadlines go back to normal. With iGrade right now the faculty has 2 more days to submit their grades. Larae Lundgren indicated that we are the only UC campus that has a dual grade processes. Her office has been dealing with Deans and the Chairs and Deans have signed off that by fall 2008, iGrade will be the only way to submit grades. The EC members indicated that the main issue was the lack of communication between the faculty and the Registrar’s office. It was recommended that in the future issues like setting of the Academic Calendar or changes in deadlines such as what was being discussed should include the Chair of CEP as a point focus.
5
REMARKS BY THE CHAIR: Regulation 8 – Classroom Disruption update from Michele Coyle Chair Cogswell reported back that the Campus Attorney had indicated that APM-015 (1) (b) already holds faculty accountable for significant intrusions of material unrelated to the course. Accordingly, the authority to deal with the problems that have come to the attention of the Committee already exists, and the actions that are proposed in Regulation 8 can already be taken by a faculty member confronted with these problems. The EC members agreed that a general letter will be sent out to the faculty every September that will have the following language:
Each faculty member, according to APM-015 (1) (b), is responsible for what happens in her/his classroom. Therefore s/he is under no obligation to permit anyone to address the class, whether that person is a student and/or a representative of any campus organization, outside company, or any other announced or unannounced visitor who has not been authorized by the faculty member to speak in the classroom (this is barring some unforeseen emergency and an interruption from law enforcement or other campus personnel to give a mandatory announcement). The final decision as to who is authorized to speak in a faculty member’s classroom is at the discretion of individual faculty members. They are however strongly encouraged to protect instruction time from any interruption.
Vivaria – follow-up: Ted Garland, a member of Faculty Welfare was invited to give an update. He indicated that the VC Research Charles Louis’s effort to try and get funding from NIH to pay the $500,000 he was given by the administration and he has to pay back these funds with interest – the charges would be charged to existing animal users. Even with the half a million dollar, the space is still only half operational – they still need about ½ million to make it operational for HSRI, the Medical School etc. VC Louis is trying to work on a more seamless transition plan – with a proposal to have modest increase with the administration taking care of the difference. Update on the University Club Chair Cogswell indicated that he met with Vice Chancellor Gretchen Bolar and Tim Ralston to discuss the proposal for a University Club and that one of the points raised was to blend the proposal with plans for a Conference facility. He indicated that it was suggested that a joint senate/administration task force be formed to come up with a proposal for the club to be presented to the new Chancellor. The question still remains on who will pay for the feasibility study. Graduate Council Report: Chair Cogswell indicated that this was on-going. General Education Report: The Engineers are looking at it and will get back to Chair Cogswell soon with a proposal for the Ad Hoc Committee to review.
6
Funding Crisis: Vice Chair Ward Beyermann indicated that he wanted to get EC approval for him to send the memo he passed out which was in regard to funding crisis that is occurring to the physical sciences. All the agencies involved in funding of physical sciences have seen a dramatic cut to their funding research last year contrary to a passage of the America COMPETES Act. He would like to ask that Chair Michael Brown as the Chair of the Senate to try and get the Regents to act on the UC’s behalf with the legislators. Chair Cogswell indicated that it would probably be better if the EC sent the memo in the form of a resolution. The EC members approved a motion to have the memo to transmit the memo to the Academic Council urging them to transmit it to the Regents. The motion was approved unanimously. Revised BOARS proposal: Chair Cogswell indicated that the BOARS issue was a very important item and he would like the members to review it. He indicated that he was organizing a meeting with the Admissions Staff to better understand the implications of the new eligibility proposal. He is concerned about the need to rush the proposal through. Meeting adjourned at 2:15 PM. Respectfully submitted, Sellyna Ehlers Executive Director Academic Senate

Reconstituting AGSM 1
SUMMARY
This is a revision of the proposal to reconstitute the A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of
Management (AGSM) at the UC Riverside (UCR), and to transfer the granting authority of
the B.S. degree in Business Administration from the UCR College of Humanities, Arts, and
Social Sciences to the reconstituted AGSM. The original proposal was approved by the
Riverside Division of the Academic Senate on November 22, 2005, and was submitted for
approval by the UC system wide committees on January 19, 2006. The Academic Council
and Assembly of the Academic Senate decided in May 2006 to table the approval of the
proposal until UCR responds to the concerns that were raised by the two Committees:
University Committee on Planning and Budget (UCPB), and University Committee on
Educational Policy (UCEP).
In this revision we respond fully to all the concerns that were raised by the above two
committees. The concerns raised by UCPB in its April 11, 2006 report deal with the issue of
leadership at AGSM, especially the dean and the chairs of the departments, and the issue of
faculty resources. These two issues have been resolved; the school has since hired a highly
qualified and experienced dean, the two chairs from philosophy have been replaced: one by
an experienced AGSM faculty at the full professor rank, and the other by a former AGSM
faculty who is currently in the Economics Department at UCR and has excellent leadership.
Also faculty resources are in line with what is required. In addition, the new dean has
appointed an experienced, senior member of the AGSM faculty as the associate dean for the
undergraduate program and has hired a very experienced full time director of the program.
The latter staff member brings more than 15 years of similar experience at the Marshall
School of Business at the University of Southern California, a program that made enormous
improvement over the past decade and a half and that routinely ranks among the top 10
undergraduate business programs.
The concerns of UCEP, as stated in its April 10, 2006 report, deal with several issues; they
include issues of admission, advising, curriculum, faculty resources and deployment, and the
role of AGSM in the Business Administration Program at UCR. It appears that most of
8
Reconstituting AGSM 2
UCEP’s concerns may have emanated from lack of information in the original proposal about
the role of AGSM in the Business Administration Program at UCR, and the evolution of this
program since its inception in the fall of 1985. These issues are fully addressed in this
revision.
I. Introduction
Currently The A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management (AGSM) at UC Riverside
is chartered to offer only graduate degrees. In this proposal it is requested that AGSM be
reconstituted to award the B.S. degree in Business Administration in addition to graduate
degrees. The reconstituted school will be called College of Business (COB), which will house
both the Anderson Graduate School of Management and the Undergraduate Business Program. The
B.S. degree is currently conferred by UCR College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences
(CHASS); however the program has been managed, staffed and operated by AGSM since its
inception in 1985.
The request is a simple one given the affiliation and involvement of AGSM in the
undergraduate Business Administration Program (BAP) at UCR. While the program is
governed by a joint committee consisting of eight Academic Senate members, four from
AGSM including its dean and the chair of the committee and four from CHASS including its
dean, AGSM has played the primary role in the design, development, and delivery of the
program and its subsequent revisions; it continues to operate and manage the program
including admission and advising of its students, and teaching most of its business
administration courses. In fact this involvement provides AGSM with most of its FTE faculty
lines. AGSM provides for the staffing of the Office of Undergraduate Programs (OUP),
which acts as the administrative office for the BAP. AGSM had conducted self-studies of the
program, and all the required periodic and critical reviews ordered by the Committee on
Educational Policy of the UCR Division of the Academic Senate. It has regularly revised the
curriculum, and has maintained the program on par with the best of public business
administration programs in the country. AGSM has also maintained BAP’s compliance with
all standards of the national accreditation agency for business education in USA, known as
Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Virtually all business
9
Reconstituting AGSM 3
courses within the program are staffed by faculty members or lecturers with primary
appointments in AGSM. However, due to the current charter of AGSM, the B.S. degree in
Business Administration at UCR continues to be conferred by CHASS.
The desire to reconstitute AGSM and grant it the authority to award the B.S. degree in
Business Administration in addition to graduate degrees was included in UCR’s
Perspectives for the years 2004/09, 2005/10 and 2006/11. It is stated in UCR 2004/09
Perspective, “AGSM would resume full responsibility for the undergraduate B.S. degree in
Business Administration. This requires authorization for AGSM to offer the Bachelors degree
and should be accompanied by a change in the name of the school from Graduate School of
Management to College of Business.”
II. Objectives of the Business Administration Program
The Business Administration Program at UCR is an upper division program that was
designed and approved in the academic year 1984/85. Students are admitted to the Business
Administration Program in their late sophomore or early junior years through an admissions
process coordinated by AGSM. The program continues to adhere to its original mission of
providing a high quality University of California education in business administration based
on strong grounding in liberal arts and sciences. This mission is wholly consistent with the
mission of the University of California. The Master Plan for Higher Education in California
states that the University of California shall provide instructions in the liberal arts, sciences,
and in the professions. The objectives of the undergraduate degree in business administration
will not change as a result of the proposed reorganization; these objectives are:
• To provide leadership training in management strongly grounded in the social sciences.
• To equip students with the ability to identify, analyze, and provide solutions to business
problems.
• To provide students with the knowledge in functional areas of management.
• To offer a degree program which meets the accreditation standards of the Association
to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
10
Reconstituting AGSM 4
The program continues to compare very favorably with some of the best liberal arts oriented
business administration programs in the country. The latest self-study that was conducted
shortly before its accreditation by AACSB in April 2003 shows that it is at par with the
business administration programs at UC Berkeley, University of Michigan at Ann Arbor,
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and University of Virginia. The transfer of the
degree to the reconstituted AGSM will not change the objectives or pedagogical
characteristics of the program. It will change and streamline the management of the program.
This change in program management should have the effect of simplifying governance and
making program change and innovation easier and more frequent. Curriculum change and
program innovation are important for responding to the changing business environment, to
shifting business practices, and to the program innovations of competitor business schools.
The shift of governance to a single academic unit on the UCR campus should also have a
positive impact on student retention.
III. Administration of the Program
The transfer of the B.S. degree in Business Administration to the reconstituted AGSM,
College of Business, will strengthen the program as it simplifies the governance of the
program, and provides a home for its students. As observed above, this should have the effect
of increasing program innovation and currency, increasing responsiveness to students and the
requirements of employers, and increase student retention. These positive outcomes will arise
from improvements in governance, admission, advising, curriculum, and resources.
1. Governance: Although the BAP is currently the largest major in UCR it does not have an
independent governing body whose primary function is to serve the major and its students.
The B.S. degree in Business Administration is operated by AGSM and conferred by CHASS.
The policies governing the degree are first developed and approved by the BAP Committees,
then they are approved by the executive committees of both colleges (AGSM and CHASS),
before they are forwarded to the appropriate Academic Senate committees. The BAP
Committee consists of eight voting members; four from AGSM and four from CHASS. The
four from AGSM include the dean, and three AGSM faculty members including the chair of
the committee who is appointed by the dean of AGSM. The chair of the committee is
11
Reconstituting AGSM 5
currently the associate dean for undergraduate programs within AGSM. The Director of the
Undergraduate Business Program is also an ex officio member of the committee. The four
members of the committee from CHASS include the dean, and faculty members representing
the departments of Economics, Political Science, and Sociology. The committee composition
has to be approved annually by the two respective executive committees of AGSM and
CHASS.
The BAP Committee has worked well on policy issues and helped evolve the program over
time to the state it is in today; but it falls short on managing the tactical and operational
issues. Consequently, transfer of the degree to the reconstituted AGSM should improve the
management of these issues, facilitate innovation, and contribute to student retention by
placing responsibility for students’ education experience within the domain of a single
academic unit. The present organizational structure assures that any change in policy or
curriculum for the program will take a longer time to approve if compared to programs
managed by independent departments. The diffusion of responsibilities for the program
structure and for students’ experience also reduces incentives for attending to such matters.
The BAP Committee is not involved in course offerings or scheduling. Similarly, the
committee does not address the deployment of faculty to courses and classes; and it is not
involved in monitoring quality of instructions. All these issues are the domain of the
participating departments that teach the courses.
The present organization of the undergraduate business program is virtually unique among
such programs. Most business schools operate both the undergraduate and graduate
programs. A few Universities have separated the graduate and undergraduate business
schools as separate academic units, e.g. University of Virginia and Wake Forest University,
but even this organizational structure is rare and does not diffuse the responsibility for
individual programs across different academic units. Even in those cases where there are
separate schools for the undergraduate and graduate business programs the result has been
that the reputation of the undergraduate program has suffered relative to the MBA program
located on the same campus. The present organization of the undergraduate program in
12
Reconstituting AGSM 6
business at UCR contributes to diminished visibility and reputation for the undergraduate
business program.
Students, their parents, and recruiters from the business community are often confused by the
current organizational structure of the undergraduate business program. Students at various
stages of study come to AGSM advisors for advice when they are supposed to go to
counselors in CHASS and vice-versa. Many students graduate without knowing to which
school or department they belong. This confusion has been reduced by elaborate orientation
programs involving academic advisors and associate deans from AGSM and CHASS, and by
regular meetings and on going communications between the OUP in AGSM and the Student
Affairs Office in CHASS. Confusion remains, however. Corporate recruiters are often
unclear about whether UCR offers an undergraduate business degree. At minimum, the
current organizational structure of the undergraduate business program reduces its visibility
and reputation among prospective students and recruiters, necessitating unnecessary effort to
explain the program.
Once the B.S. degree in Business Administration is transferred to AGSM, the joint Business
Administration Program Committee (specified above) will be disestablished and replaced
with a structure similar to that at HAAS in UC Berkeley and other similar institutions. The
Office of Undergraduate Programs at AGSM will be the home/department for the program.
OUP has been restructured and strengthened in preparation for this request (to restructure
AGSM and transfer the authority to grant the B.S. degree in Business Administration to it). It
currently consists of six individuals: Associate dean for Undergraduate Business Programs,
who is an experienced and tenured AGSM faculty, an experienced Director for
Undergraduate Business Programs, three qualified and highly experienced student advisors,
and one administrative assistant. This team can be increased if need arises. Also this team
works very closely with the AGSM faculty, Dean, AGSM Executive Committee, the Pre-
business Office at CHASS, UCR Registrar, and with Transfer Students Center at UCR. The
OUP is located in a newly modeled section of AGSM in Anderson Hall, enjoying state of the
13
Reconstituting AGSM 7
art information technology, and supported by AGSM technology advisors. It is well accessed
by Pre-business and Business Administration students and faculty.
2. Admission Process: The BAP is an upper division (junior and senior) program. It attracts
high quality and well motivated students from diverse backgrounds. Most are domestic
students from Southern California. Students apply for admission into the program after they
complete the college breadth requirements and the business administration pre-requisites
(more on these requirements in the section on Curriculum). About 60% of the students
admitted into the major are from the freshmen who joined UCR two years earlier as pre-
business students. The remaining 40% are transfer students from other departments in UCR,
other UC campuses, but mostly from the California community college system. Table 1
below shows the enrollment data for the last seven years. Pre-business students in UCR are
advised and supervised by the Pre-business Office in CHASS. This office coordinates its
activities with the Office of Undergraduate Programs in AGSM and will continue to do so
after the transfer of the BAP to AGSM.
Table 1 indicates that about one third of the entering Pre-business students make it to the
major two years later. The attrition that occurs is not unusual across universities that offer
upper division undergraduate programs in business and is largely due to:
• Normal attrition in the first two, pre-business, years.
• Change to other majors such as those in Table 2 early on before applying for admission
into the major.
• Or the students do not meet the requirements for admission to the undergraduate
business program, especially the 2.5 cumulative GPA requirement. These students
generally migrate to other majors in UCR, especially those identified in Table 2.
Most of these alternative majors have a business administration flavor and make
complete use of students’ pre-business preparation.
Table 2 shows the enrollment data in eight of the majors that require some business
administration course work. For instance, the B.S. in Information Systems offered by
14
Reconstituting AGSM 8
Computer Science in the School of Engineering requires ten business courses. The minor in
Business Administration requires seven courses. The others, which all are cooperative majors
in CHASS departments, each requires five business courses. This shows that a pre-business
or a transfer student who could not be admitted into the Business Administration major can
easily move to another major in UCR without a loss of time or any of the breadth and/or the
business major pre-requisites that he/she has completed.
Students (pre-business or transfer) can apply for admission into the major towards the end of
the sophomore or beginning of the junior year. They apply after they have completed, or are
about to complete, college breadth requirements and business major pre-requisites. These are
normally completed after earning no less than 75 units and without exceeding 100 quarter
units. Hence the student must apply for admission before exceeding 100 quarter units. In
some exceptional circumstances, students are allowed to apply even after they have exceeded
the 100-unit limit by petitioning the director of OUP. Students can not apply for admission to
the undergraduate business program more than twice. All applications, whether a first time
application or second time application must be completed prior to the completion of 100-
units. The idea is to enable interested students to get into the major if qualified, or to find an
alternative major before taking other courses that may not help them in the alternative major.
The application is submitted to the Office of Undergraduate Programs in AGSM anytime the
student feels that he/she has completed or is about to complete the requirements for
admission. Applications are collected, then processed by OUP staff four times within the
academic year: Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. Admission into the program is competitive
and it is well advertised to students through orientation programs and advising. It is based on
the cumulative GPA (currently it is set at 2.5), a personal statement, and letters of
recommendation. Once the student is admitted, he/she completes an orientation program, and
is advised by AGSM’s staff in the OUP.
The program is competitive and enrollment is limited. Initially in 1984/85 enrollment was
limited to a total of 250 students. As UCR grew student demand for the program increased;
as a result the program was revised in 1989/90 to provide for more flexibility in its
15
Reconstituting AGSM 9
requirements, and a dynamic quota was established. The new quota allowed enrollment in the
program to increase proportionally to the increase in UCR’s undergraduate population; the
quota was set to 6.5% of the undergraduate population. In the latest evaluation of the
program, which culminated in the requirements presented in Appendix I, the quota was set to
a total of 1200 students (as measured by the fall quarter 3rd week figures). The latest
revisions of the curriculum and requirements were approved by the UCR Division of the
Academic Senate on November 22, 2005; and they are currently implemented.

3. Student Advising: Students in Business Administration continue to enjoy one-on-one
advising with full-time professional academic advisors, as well as significant advice and
information that is available on-line. Students are advised by the staff of the Office of
Undergraduate Programs in AGSM. OUP employs six individuals: an associate dean for the
undergraduate program, a full time director of the undergraduate program, three professional
academic advisors, and an administrative assistant. The advisors, with the assistance of the
director and the associate dean evaluate the applications and issue admission letters. AGSM
faculty support is available if needed. Each admitted student enjoys a personalized advising
session with one of the professional academic advisors where the degree requirements are
explained and a study plan is established. Advising thereafter is available in two separate
settings: one through the open hours of the professional advising staff who are available for
walk-in appointments during certain hours every week, and one through individualized
appointments. The OUP also provides advising through the electronic media and the AGSM
website. Advisors also provide workshops to pre-business in conjunction with the Pre-
Business Office in CHASS, and to transfer students about the pre-requisites for the major and
the application process. Efforts are being made to reach out to students in other settings such
as student dorms and through working with the Students Transfer Center on UCR to work
with California Community College system.
4. Curriculum: The B.S degree in Business Administration at UCR is strongly grounded in
liberal arts education. Transfer of the program to the reconstituted AGSM will not alter this
characterization. The curriculum consists of five segments; Appendix I shows the complete
requirements of the program. These are:
a. College Breadth Requirements: All pre-business students must complete the CHASS
breadth requirements; these consist of five courses in humanities, four in social
sciences, five courses in natural sciences in addition to three courses in English, three
courses in foreign language (or acquiring of third level competency), and a course in
ethnic studies. These requirements, at the lower division, are comparable to their
counterparts in excellent undergraduate business programs such as those of UC
Berkeley, U. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, U. of Michigan, and U of Virginia. In
17
Reconstituting AGSM 11
fact the UCR program exceeds its counterparts in most of the above categories.
Transfer students from the UCR College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences (CNAS)
or Bourns College of Engineering (BCOE) have similar requirements. Transfer
students from California community college system have also similar requirements
through the articulation agreement and the Intersegmental General Education Transfer
Curriculum (IGETC). The broad, liberal arts education focus that characterizes the
pre-business portion of the UCR business program, carries over to the upper division
level. As described below in sections b, c and d some of the upper division business
requirements can be satisfied by taking liberal arts courses. This provides an
opportunity for undergraduate business students to develop breadth through exposure
to course work relevant to business but outside of the core business disciplines. This
breadth requirement also differentiates the undergraduate business program from the
MBA program, which tends to focus almost exclusively on preparation in business
disciplines.
b. Pre-requisites for the Major: These consist of eight courses. Only two of them are
business courses (BUS 10: Introduction to Business, and BUS 20: Financial
Accounting and Reporting). The other six are in the social and natural sciences, and
they can count toward the college breadth requirements. The breadth requirements and
pre-requisites for the undergraduate business program can be completed in the first
two years of enrollment.
c. Business Core Requirements: These required business courses consist of the ten
courses specified in Appendix I. They capture the standard curriculum required by
AACSB as a basis for accreditation. These requirements provide a broad knowledge
of all functional areas of business and are consistent with the goal of developing
breadth in the educational experience of undergraduate business students. Two of
these requirements can be satisfied by courses taken in some of the departments at
CHASS such as Political Science, Sociology, Philosophy, and Psychology. Core
courses are usually completed in the third year of enrollment.
d. Concentration Courses: To be competitive in the market for their business education
undergraduate business students generally find initial employment after graduation in
a specific business function, such as accounting, marketing, finance, human resources
18
Reconstituting AGSM 12
or other areas. Some professional certification requirements, such as eligibility to take
the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam, also require specific amounts and types
of course work. In order to prepare students for work in a business function and to
assure that UCR graduates meet the requirements for professional certification in areas
where it is required, the undergraduate business program requires that students
complete a minimum number of courses in a specific business function. These focused
functional courses are called a concentration. Concentrations offered within the
general business administration major and are common features of undergraduate
business programs. Such concentrations also support the student advising function by
providing students with clearly identified groups of courses that will prepare them for
specific career opportunities or for eligibility for professional certification. For
example, a concentration in accounting would be defined by the courses required for
eligibility to take the CPA examination.
The most recent review and revision of the business administration program resulted
in the creation of twelve concentrations. These were created to provide for more
flexibility for the students, and to allow for a certain degree of specialization. The
functional concentration consists of an additional five courses beyond those in the
general business core, which were described in c above. These concentrations are
listed in Appendix II. At least six of these concentrations rely on taking upper division
courses in departments in the other colleges of UCR (BCOE, CHASS, and CNAS).
Such concentrations are consistent with the objective of providing undergraduate
business students with a broad educational experience while still assuring that students
are adequately prepared for careers in business and professional certification. The
availability of a range of concentrations allows students to benefit from faculty
strengths within AGSM and across UCR. The cross college concentrations provide a
means for meeting students’ interests in integrating business management with other
educational experiences within the larger campus. These courses are usually taken in
the senior year.
e. Upper division business electives: These elective courses consist of three upper
division courses. Student can add them to increase his/her focus/depth in a
19
Reconstituting AGSM 13
concentration, or to focus toward a specific career. Students who wish to graduate
with more than 180 units can choose to take more electives should they wish to do so.
The design of the program, including the availability of electives both within specific
business disciplines and in relevant disciplines outside of the business disciplines
provides students with the opportunity to pursue a broad education and
simultaneously prepare for a career and qualify for national certifying exams, such as
the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Certified Financial Analyst (CFA).
5. Faculty Resources: BAP generates FTE faculty lines for all of the participating schools
and departments in a manner proportional to their involvement in the program. At the pre-
requisite and upper division levels these departments include AGSM, Art, Computer Science,
Engineering, Economics, Political Science, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology, and
Statistics. AGSM teaches two of the pre-requisite courses (BUS 10 and BUS 20), at least
eight of the ten core courses, many of the concentration courses, and most of the business
electives. Consequently, AGSM generates most of its FTE faculty lines from this program. It
also deploys its ladder rank faculty in teaching and serving this program. AGSM currently
has 24 ladder rank faculty, two visitors, four full time lecturers, and numerous part-time
lecturers. AGSM is currently involved in an aggressive faculty recruiting campaign intended
to add at least ten ladder faculty members for the fall of 2008. This would bring the total
active faculty to 40, including all ladder faculty, visitors, and full time lecturers. The School
is currently budgeted for 39.5 FTE. Given the current enrollment of the School (1116
undergraduate students and 125 MBA students) this faculty size will provide for the faculty
to student ratio mandated by the accreditation agency AACSB, which is 1:25.
6. Accreditation of the Program: The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of
Business (AACSB International) promotes academic standards for business programs that
focus on curriculum, resources, and currency of the faculty in their fields. The curriculum
standards determine the basic requirements for a degree in business administration. Standards
for faculty resources maintains that the faculty to student ratio to be no less than 1:25 on one
hand, that over 60% of the faculty must be academically qualified, and that over 90% must
20
Reconstituting AGSM 14
be academically and/or professionally qualified (a professionally qualified faculty member
would be one with significant business experience). Academic and professional qualifications
are specified and are a function of the mission of the school and university. Business
administration programs are evaluated on these standards. Those that satisfy or exceed these
standards are accredited for a certain period of time after which they must come back for re-
accreditation.
Accreditation is important for students, faculty and employers. It indicates that an accredited
program has met or exceeded the minimum standards required for a degree in business
administration, and that the program is true to its mission. It indicates quality. Prospective
faculty prefer to be hired by schools/colleges with accredited programs, some employers hire
graduates of only accredited programs, some employers support the continuing education of
their employees only if they attend accredited programs. The BAP at UCR was accredited in
April 2003 and it is up for reaccreditation. Transferring the degree to the reconstituted
AGSM will make the reaccreditation process easier as it provides for a more focused
governing structure for the program, and provides the students with a well defined home.

March 12, 2008 To: Thomas Cogswell Chair, Riverside Division Academic Senate Fr: Christopher Chase-Dunn Chair, Committee on Academic Personnel Re: Reconstitution of the AGSM and the transfer of the BS Degree in Business Administration to AGSM CAP discussed the proposed reconstitution of AGSM and the transfer of the B.S. degree in Business Administration from CHASS to the Anderson Graduate School of Business. There was strong support for the efforts to expand the mandate of AGSM to undergraduate education. CAP noted with approval that the proposed curriculum for the undergraduate major remains a broad interdisciplinary approach with substantial prerequisites in social sciences and the humanities. CAP notes that the relevant UCR Academic Senate Committees should be consulted regarding any future changes in the requirements for the Business Administration major.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA OFFICE OF THE ACADEMIC SENATE RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA
March 6, 2008 TO: THOMAS COGSWELL, CHAIR RIVERSIDE DIVISION
FR: PIERRE KELLER, CHAIR COMMITTEE ON EDUCATIONAL POLICY RE: AGSM PROPOSAL TO RECONSTITUTE AND TRANSFER THE B.S. IN
BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION TO AGSM The CEP met on March 5 and discussed the proposal to reconstitute and transfer the B.S. in Business Administration to AGSM. We voted unanimously in favor of the proposal (5 Yes votes, 0 No votes, 1 Abstention from an AGSM member in virtue of conflict of interest). CEP has concluded that with the addition of a new permanent Dean, the recruitment of new advising staff, and the plan to hire ten new ladder rank faculty in order to replace lecturers in AGSM, the transfer is now on a much firmer footing than when it was initially proposed and later tabled at the systemwide level. The concerns that we had as a committee at the time of the initial transfer proposal have been addressed in the new proposal. We would also note that the transfer, if and when it is implemented, will help satisfy a request from the AACSB accreditation board. Since the initial proposal was tabled at the systemwide level, we would encourage AGSM to strengthen the case that it makes for the transfer by soliciting expert evaluation of the implications of the proposed transfer. By soliciting outside letters that evaluate the strength of the plan and program, concerns that may still linger from the initial abortive transfer can effectively be addressed. Most importantly, we feel a letter from those involved in the undergraduate program at UC Berkeley would help the reviewing parties with advice from a well established and also otherwise comparable program.

RIVERSIDE: OFFICE OF THE ACADEMIC SENATE
MARCH 14, 2008 TO: THOMAS COGSWELL, CHAIR RIVERSIDE DIVISION FM: ANTHONY NORMAN, CHAIR COMMITTEE ON PLANNING AND BUDGET RE: REORGANIZATION OF UNDERGRADUATE BUSINESS PROGRAM This proposal is a revision of a previous proposal approved by the UCR campus. The revision has addressed the reasons for the deferral of a decision at the system level. First, with regard to administration, the A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management, UCR has hired a Permanent Dean, David Stewart. The school also has assigned an experienced associate dean to oversee the program. Second, the Undergraduate Program Office has hired a new full time director from USC with 15 years experience running the undergraduate business program, in addition to advising staff (three staff members). This seems to be an improved governance structure and in line with what is being done at other business schools. Lastly, the school is currently hiring additional faculty members. Moreover, it is important to note that no new classes or new faculty would be needed. As for the curriculum, the program offers 12 concentrations (shown on page 16) in most recent curriculum revision. These “tracks” provide advice and guidance to supplement advising staff. These concentrations bring it in line with concentrations offered by other business schools. It is important to note that the revised proposal is approved by CHASS, AGSM, and the Business Administration Program Committee (BAPC) and supported by both of the Deans of AGSM and CHASS. This transfer will accomplish the following for UCR/AGSM as described in the proposal:
• It will streamline the management and ownership of the program. • It will bring UCR’s undergraduate business program model in line with other
UC business schools with undergraduate programs (e.g. UCI and UC Berkeley).
• It will address UCR campus-wide retention issues (many students find the lack of a “home” confusing).
• It will increase the visibility and the marketability of the program from UCR’s standpoint (this is especially important given UCI’s introduction of an undergraduate business program).
• It will help with reaccreditation of AGSM/UCR’s business programs since this unusual structure has been a concern of previous accreditation visitation teams.
• Last but not the least, it might also enable UCR out-reach efforts since there will be one central point of contact with the business community at AGSM.

Reorganization of the UCR Division of the Academic Senate Organizational Structure and Functional Relationships
Introduction
The Special Committee on Academic Senate Reorganization was appointed by UCR’s Division Chair to examine the possibility of reorganizing the Riverside Division of the Academic Senate and provide the Chair with recommendations on this issue. We are looking for an organization that achieves the following objectives and believe that meeting these objectives will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the Senate in its role of shared governance.
1. Senate committee functions and interactions between committees are more transparent.
2. The decision-making authority of the various units is clarified.
3. The Division structure facilitates better communication with existing administrative units.
4. There is better coordination between standing Senate committees and joint Senate/administrative committees.
5. Redundant and disproportionate workloads between committees are reduced.
6. Staff time and expertise are used more efficiently.
As preparation, the committee collected information on the divisional senates at the other campuses. In some cases, little information was available, other than their bylaws. Perhaps the most useful source was the Division at UCSB. In 2000, a task force on academic senate reorganization was appointed. This committee spent a large amount of time examining this issue and systems at other UC campuses, and we found the document that this committee issued in November 2001 to be very informative. Our committee also solicited preliminary comments from the Chairs of all the standing Senate committees at UCR and the Senate staff that support these committees. All of this material is available in the Senate office.
After reviewing and discussing this information, we are proposing a new structure for the UCR Division. This structure is similar to that adopted by UCSB and attempts to address some of the same objectives listed above. While this document proposes an overall structure for the Division with a rough model for the functional relationship between the units, we have not yet addressed many of the specifics that pertain to this new structure. Some of these unresolved issues include the membership and selection process of the councils and committees and the role of ad hoc and joint Senate/administrative committees. Also, the detailed relationship between the councils and committees including the authority and jurisdiction of the various units within the Senate will require more discussion. Before moving forward on these specifics, the committee would like tentative approval of the items discussed in this document. After this, a more complete proposal of a new Division organization, incorporating comments on this document, will be submitted to the standing committees for review. Once the final proposal is approved, new bylaws will have to be written, and an implementation plan will have to be formulated.
New Organizational Structure
Our recommendation is to adopt a Division structure that is based on a limited number of councils, as shown in Chart 1. The councils will have broad oversight for major and well defined areas of authority that are important to the Senate. Listed below each council are the committees that represent more specific areas within the authority of the council. The objective is to cluster related areas of the Senate in such a way that their interrelationship is more obvious and with a more hierarchical structure that better defines their decision-making authority and distributes workload more effectively.
Within the new structure there would be four councils representing undergraduate education, graduate education, research and instructional resources, and faculty welfare and awards. In addition to the
29
April 10, 2008
councils that represent these specific areas, there would be an Executive Council with oversight on all issues of interest to the Senate.
On the left side of Chart 1 are the present standing Senate committees. The color-coding of the committee names provides a rough indication of each committee’s workload.
Committees with high workloads are indicated in red (meetings per year > 7) Committees with average workloads are indicated in black (3 ≤ meetings per year ≤ 7) Committees with below average workloads are indicated in green (2 ≤ meetings per year < 3) Committees with very low workloads are indicated in blue (meetings per year < 2)
The workload was determined by the last three-year average of the number of meetings per year. No adjustment was made for the duration of the meetings. Off-line workload is not reflected and may vary considerably from committee to committee.
On the right of Chart 1 is our proposed structure for the Division. At the top is the Executive Council, and below this are the four area-specific councils and the six college executive committees. Also listed below the Executive Council are four committees that did not seem appropriate to include in any of the area-specific councils: Academic Personnel, Committee on Committees, Planning & Budget, and Rules & Jurisdiction. These committees are of great enough importance to warrant their own representation on the proposed Executive Council. Below each area-specific council are the committees within their cluster. The dashed lines connecting the two structures indicate how the purview of each existing committee would be distributed among the new councils and committees. In some cases workload adjustments were made by either dividing an existing committee’s responsibility into two or more new committees or combining two existing committees into a single new committee. Overall, the total number of units making-up the Division remains about the same.
One of the objectives discussed above is to provide a Division structure that more closely parallels the administrative structure to better facilitate communication between the two branches of governance. The customary relationship between the administrative and new Division structure is shown in Chart 2 to illustrate their alignment. In a few cases, administrators could be ex-officio members of Senate councils and committees.
Council Responsibility and Authority
An important objective is to delegate sufficient authority to various units within the Senate to ensure authoritative decision outcomes that benefit the Division as a whole. Each council will have broad oversight within its area of authority with the intention of focusing on general policy making and the formulation of procedures and guidelines. The committees within each cluster would concentrate on details and implementation.
New items of business, especially ones pertaining to general policies, will come to the Division either through the Division Chair or the Executive Council. The Division Chair, possibly in consultation with the Executive Council, determines which council(s) has jurisdiction. The assigned council(s) must respond in a judicious and timely manner with input from appropriate committees within its cluster when appropriate. Councils would have responsibility for prioritizing issues, routing them through their cluster and determining what actions are required of their committees (e.g., level of review or approval). The Executive Council or Division Chair can also require that any committee under a council respond to an issue.
Routine matters of business can go directly to the council or committee with jurisdiction, and it is from this point that the business exits the Division unless standard procedures dictate otherwise or concerns warrant broader action. For example, course changes enter the Senate at the college executive committee, go directly from there to Courses and then to the Register’s office if approved, bypassing the overseeing council. Grievances will also go directly to Privilege and Tenure, bypassing the Council on Faculty
30
April 10, 2008
Welfare and Awards. For committees, these procedures must be delineated in their bylaws. A council’s workload associated with routine business should not impede its ability to act on general policy issues, and for cases where this does become a problem, the task should be delegated to an existing or newly created committee within its cluster. All business that leaves the Division at a level below the Executive Council must be reported to the Division Chair in a timely fashion.
Each council will have authority over the bylaws that govern not only the council but also all the committees within its cluster. All bylaw changes must be approved by the Committee on Rules and Jurisdiction, the Executive Council and voted on by the full Senate at a Division meeting.
